Diplomats: Iran announcement planned Monday Posted: 12 Jul 2015 01:26 PM PDT Negotiators at the Iran nuclear talks plan to announce Monday that they've reached a historic deal capping nearly a decade of diplomacy that would curb the country's atomic program in return for sanctions relief, two diplomats told The Associated Press on Sunday.

Greece gets ultimatum to avoid euro exit Posted: 12 Jul 2015 03:47 PM PDT Hawkish Germany pushed for a Greek "time out" from the euro if leftist Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras fails to agree to tough take-it-or-leave-it terms for a three-year rescue plan worth up to 86 billion euros ($96 billion). Greece said the plans were "very bad", but with its banks set to run dry in days it looked to have little choice but to bow to reform demands that effectively rob Athens of control of much its finances. The dramatic weekend of backroom dealings in Brussels threatened to leave the European Union more divided than at any time in its 50-year history, and by a currency that was meant to bring it together.

Mexico kingpin 'Chapo' Guzman stages brazen jailbreak in blow to president Posted: 12 Jul 2015 02:17 PM PDT By Alexandra Alper ALMOLOYA DE JUAREZ, Mexico (Reuters) - Mexico's most notorious drug lord, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, broke out of a high-security prison on Saturday night for the second time, escaping in a tunnel built right under his cell, and heaping embarrassment on President Enrique Pena Nieto. The kingpin snuck out of the prison through a subterranean tunnel more than 1.5 km (1 mile) long that ended at an abandoned property near the local town, National Security Commissioner Monte Alejandro Rubido told a news conference on Sunday. Guzman, who had bribed his way out of prison during an escape in 2001, was seen on video entering his shower area at 8:52 p.m. on Saturday (0152 GMT Sunday), then disappeared, the National Security Commission (CNS) said.

Angry at demands, Greeks rail at German 'humiliation' Posted: 12 Jul 2015 02:55 AM PDT Greeks accuse Germany of insisting on purely punitive measures as part of a new bailout deal.

Pay and pride clash for Latino workers at Trump golf course Posted: 12 Jul 2015 04:59 AM PDT By Laila Kearney and Sebastien Melo NEW YORK, July 12 (Reuters) - From the nearest bus stop, workers navigate about a mile of overgrown and cracked sidewalk before they reach Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point Park in the Bronx, with its pristine fairways, treacherous bunkers and expansive views of the jagged Manhattan skyline. Like Andris Garcia, a 22-year-old security guard at the course, many are Latinos, immigrants or descendants of immigrants. "Just because they're Mexican, it doesn't mean that they came over here to sell drugs or kill people." Since announcing his bid for the Republican nomination last month, Trump has faced the fury of Latinos and the cancellation of major business deals after he accused Mexico of sending rapists and other criminals to the United States.

Confederate flag supporters rise up to defend embattled symbol Posted: 12 Jul 2015 03:20 PM PDT Horns blared and hundreds of the rebel flags fluttered as more than 1,500 vehicles and some 4,500 people turned out for the "Florida Southern Pride Ride" in Ocala, according to police estimates. "That flag has a lot of different meanings to a lot of different people," said David Stone, 38, who organized the event. In South Carolina, lawmakers moved quickly to take the flag down from the statehouse grounds in Columbia, a longstanding demand of those who see it as a divisive symbol of the South's pro-slavery legacy.

U.S. military drills stoke politics of suspicion in Texas Posted: 12 Jul 2015 06:58 AM PDT To hear the conspiracy theorists tell it, a labyrinth of tunnels is being built under Walmart stores for military attacks on civilians, and an orchestrated financial crisis will lead to martial law, U.S. troops patrolling chaotic streets, and a dictatorship under President Barack Obama. While such views represent the fringes of American political opinion, they reflect a broader suspicion of the federal government that has run deep in Texas for years. The U.S. Army Special Operations Command exercise, called Jade Helm 15, has brought these fears to a crescendo, particularly in Bastrop.

Busy Rhode Island beach reopened a day after explosion Posted: 12 Jul 2015 11:12 AM PDT The state's fire marshal was investigating the cause of the explosion that occurred around noon on Saturday at Salty Brine Beach on the state's southern coastline, said Rayna Maguire, spokeswoman for the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management. A representative for the fire marshal was not immediately available for comment. It was not clear what caused the explosion, Kurt Blanchard of the Rhode Island Environment Police said on Saturday.

Obama to free dozens of inmates from federal custody Posted: The president will use his executive authority to release inmates this week serving decades for nonviolent crimes.

Greece faces pressure to back deal or consider leaving euro Posted: 12 Jul 2015 03:37 PM PDT BRUSSELS (AP) — Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and skeptical European leaders negotiated past a self-imposed deadline into the early hours of Monday, with talks stuck on how Greece would guarantee austerity measures in exchange for a rescue package to prevent its banks from collapsing.

Trump criticizes border policy as well as trade agenda Posted: 11 Jul 2015 07:08 PM PDT PHOENIX (AP) — Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump criticized U.S. immigration and trade policies on Saturday in speeches that veered from accusing Mexico of deliberately sending criminals across the border to professing respect for the Mexican government and love for its people.

Official: Full EU summit cancelled as eurozone talks on Greece continue Posted: 12 Jul 2015 08:47 AM PDT Divided eurozone leaders clashed over the fate of Greece on Sunday with a catastrophic exit from the single currency looming large as they struggled to reach a bailout deal with debt-hit Athens. Germany's fiscal hawks faced off against doves led by France at a summit of the 19 eurozone leaders in Brussels, with Athens facing demands to push through new reform laws next week. Greece's leftist Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras insisted a deal was possible on Sunday night "if all parties want it", adding that he was ready for an "honest compromise".

Rubio revisits childhood in Vegas, calls Putin a criminal Posted: 11 Jul 2015 04:06 PM PDT HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Republican Sen. Marco Rubio called Russian President Vladimir Putin a criminal on Saturday in a presidential campaign speech less focused on foreign and domestic policy than recounting his parents' immigrant experience to voters in his childhood hometown.
